Lacks experience but could be a right handful for defenders at NSL level. Lets hope so.

2 away to Weymouth and 2 home to Aveley. So 6 games offered 18 points to date but we only got 10 points.

Best player first half by a country mile was Moxey, its a shame he came out for the second half because it was his lack of pace that was instrumental in their goal,Lovely to see at half time robin stubbs on the pitch celebrating sixty years from when we drew against the mighty spurs and my first game at plainmoor, Not sure what the half time team talk was but we never came out for the start of the second half and it was no surprise that welling got back into the game. However from about minute 70 it was just us and we were totally comfortable with the win.

Here's hoping for a decent crowd again tomorrow. January is notoriously a difficult month for many as the credit card bills come in and also this week is a bit chilly. The tanking at Worthing won't have helped either.Other clubs fans will be feeling the pinch too, so away fans will also be down. So lets get behind the lads encourage a friend to go, buy an extra beer or coffee etc.

I'll be disappointed if we get below 2,000.

Remember on Tuesday 11th February just over 5 weeks away we play Worthing away in the League. We do not want to give them the psychological boost of having beaten us today. Play to win as I am sure we will.COYY.

For me the sole focus should be on the league which is already shaping up to be a three horse race between us, Boreham and Maidstone with a few outside runners. I know it is a money earner for the club but it may be fools gold if this cup run disrupts the momentum in our quest for promotion.

To some clubs it matters, but that's fine, if it's really of no interest to you, I guess you'll be sending your youth team up then

But equally quietly all the clubs involved have emmended their fixture lists to show the 'provisional' resolution.

Still feel it's harsh on Tonbridge, still feel we don't deserve it. So have a merry Christmas, it looks like we'll see you in the new year.
